Publications

COST Action C25 is a large network of researchers aiming at advanced integrated methods for life-time engineering and sustainable construction. The publication of the Action compiles the achievements of the research activities in 28 participating countries and an EU Joint Research Centre in the broad field of sustainability of constructions. Volume 1 covers reports, recommendations, datasheets and case-studies emerging from research on life cycle assessment and eco-efficiency of constructions.

The work of COST Action 355 provides information on transportation and data collection in different European countries, and gives recommendations to change towards a more sustainable transport system. The idea is to learn from one’s neighbours experiences and to work together on important challenges: to ensure economic prosperity, mobility and quality of life for current generations as well as for our children and grandchildren.

In one handy book, this reference gathers all the necessary information on 14 of the most commonly used dangerous groups of pathogens in biosafety level 3 and 4 laboratories. All the chapters are uniformly structured, with a brief overview of the microbiology, pathology, epidemiology and detection methods for each group. In addition, a whole chapter is devoted to the special biosafety requirements, disinfection, decontamination protocols, accident literature and accident procedures, as well as treatment options for all the organisms.
